Chapter 22 Are you two together?
Although there are chain burger restaurants and convenience stores within ten minutes' walk, it is busy, but the old house behind the antique street is also very quiet.
It's better to be suspicious than to be unlucky when you meet a bad person.
Shen You held his breath and paid attention to the movements behind him, and quickened his pace to rush back. The other party's pace was also faster.
Only then did she become convinced that someone was really following her. What was even worse was that, near the door of her shop, where the street light was broken, there seemed to be a vague figure standing there.
The light was too dim to see clearly.
Was she being targeted and outflanked? !
The footsteps from behind were getting closer and deeper, and Shen You turned around in a panic.
An ordinary face with rough Chinese characters appeared in front of him, looking like he was in his forties.
What he is holding is a knife!
A trace of cruelty flashed across the man's face. As soon as he raised the knife, before he could say the words "Be honest", he was stabbed by a light that could make a blind person scream.
"Ah——"
He quickly raised his hand to cover his eyes, and right in front of him was Shen You holding a super bright flashlight.
When this thing is turned on, it can illuminate as if it were daytime. Even ghosts, let alone humans, cannot open their eyes.
Shen You bought it specially and chose an imported brand.
When you live alone, you have to be careful and don’t skimp on self-defense items.
Sensing someone approaching, she decisively threw away the food and took something out of her bag.
If the opponent has a knife, she won't rush towards him.
Shen You shouted at the top of her lungs, "It's a sand man, it's a sand man!"
At the same time, he swung the stick with one hand and struck the electric flashlight with the other hand, shocking the man's whole body.
This legal self-defense tool has a low current, which is more shocking than suppressive, but the electricity hurts.
On the other side, the person standing in the shadows made a 'tsk' sound, intending to step out to help.
Unexpectedly, what he saw was a man holding a knife, who was hit several times in a row.
He froze in place.
When Shen You heard the other person's slow footsteps, he quickly turned around and swung his stick.
Before he hit it, an extremely handsome face was reflected in his pupils.
He was wearing a simple shirt, unhurried and full of relaxation.
Her skin was as white as porcelain, her black hair fell on her forehead, and her eyes were beautiful and somewhat strangely bewitching.
"Are you two together?" Shen You asked warily.
The man's eyes were full of incomprehension and he laughed angrily, "Can I be with such a person?"
The sound is also nice, but who knows if they are from the same group!
He raised his long legs and walked towards the man with the Chinese character who was about to charge at him with a knife, looking disgusted.
He didn't know what was wrong with his Chinese-character face. He seemed to have been choked by someone. His eyes widened and he collapsed on the ground, and the knife in his hand fell.
"Are you Shen You, the owner of the shop in front?"
"Who are you?"
Shen You didn't lower his guard. The gangster with the Chinese character's face looked strange, as if he was fast.
The man smiled lazily and said, "The set of Daqi porcelain in the library belongs to you."
Hearing these words, Shen You's pupils trembled.
This man was targeting her. Who was he and how could he know about Da Qi?
"What do you do?"
She neither admitted nor denied, but changed the topic.
"Xie Guanrong will win the election in three years and become a very popular minister in fifteen years." The man continued, "His fate has another ending. He will starve to death on the way to escape." "No wonder his words are so valuable." Shen You suddenly realized, "So who are you?"
Before he could answer, the police rushed in, along with the enthusiastic neighbors carrying hoes and rolling pins. It was unknown who took advantage of the chaos and beat the man twice.
Someone called the police as soon as they heard the noise, and the police station was only seven or eight minutes' walk away.
"Is girl Shen You okay?" Uncle Zhang asked with concern.
"It's okay. Thank you everyone for helping me call the police." Shen You thanked her sincerely.
The man with the knife was handcuffed to the police car. After Shen You calmed down, it was a pity to see the food scattered on the ground. She hadn't taken a bite yet.
"Is this your boyfriend? He's so handsome." The neighbor praised.
The two frowned at the same time.
"Then you guys make a record together." The police uncle said at this time.
"No, we don't." Shen You didn't know the two words yet.
The police uncle said seriously, "Witnesses should also take notes."
"It's okay, you go, I'll clean up the food on the floor." Uncle Zhang nodded to Shen You.
Finally, the two people got into the police car together and sat in the back seat. One was unhappy, and the other was watching and guarding the whole time.
When they arrived at the station, the man holding the knife screamed in frustration.
"I originally lurked outside her shop. I wanted to wait until someone came back before taking action. Then I went in and controlled her to get something valuable."
"I don't know her. I used to live nearby and work odd jobs. Why am I living so hard! I can't even pay the rent, and I don't have money for medical treatment, but they are living so well. I'm just not convinced! ”
Shen You was speechless and slapped the table,
"What's so good?! My parents were deceived by a relative into providing a guarantee. He took the money and ran away. My family is still in debt. Who can I ask to reason?"
The man was stunned when he heard this, and his malicious tone weakened.
Of course, Shen You is not idle, and by saying these things, he also wants to reduce the possibility of being targeted in the future.
"I came here to see Shen You. I got lost here and searched for a long time before I found her store. I didn't expect to see someone robbing her, so I helped her."
"She said she doesn't know me? Well, we really don't know each other."
The policeman who took the note was speechless when he looked at the young man opposite.
If he hadn't confirmed his identity and knew that this man had so much property in his name that there was no need to be an accomplice, his presence there would have been very suspicious.
"The transcript is ready, you can leave."
Shen You was worried and asked in a low voice, "That person won't come looking for me again after he comes out, right?"
"Robbery with a knife is a felony. If you live alone, you can take some defensive measures at home." Then he praised her for her good vigilance and her self-rescue was successful this time.
After exiting the gate, Shen You and Wen Zhi stood on the road outside the police station.
She looked in the direction of the cold drink shop selling bean curd, "Why don't you go and have something to eat? I'll treat you."
She also wanted to find out why this person was here.
"I won't eat in such a noisy place." He crossed his arms over his chest, showing a bit of arrogance.
Ten minutes later, on the table outside the cold drink shop, there were already two empty bowls opposite Shen You.
She looked around and saw no one, so she asked in a low voice, "What did you come to see me for?"
Are you here to rob her shop?
That's absolutely not possible!
"Are you sure you want to say it here?" He ate quickly, but his movements were elegant.
Shen You smiled, "When you said it in front of the robber, he didn't seem to hear you."
Wen Zhi put down his spoon, "It's not a big deal, I just want to see a store that can connect different worlds. I feel very surprised."
"I have modified Daqi's rules, but your store has not been affected in any way."
